Please specify where on <http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/entity/spec-2001-08-06.html> (within the normative text) you see that. And I'm not really interested in going through a full analysis of my setup. And I don't see the recalcitrance to allowing it for the XML serialization. I'm not requesting that xml:id be the only option, or even the preferred option. I'm just requesting that it be *an* option. xml:id is a Recommendation. Its use with XHTML5 has tangible technical and practical benefits, including compatibility with a wide range of existing XML software. Is there a specific technical reason that you think it should be forbidden, in light of the fact that DTDs are not used with XHTML5? -- Configure bugmail: http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug.
